LG 48CX OLED - 4K 120 Hz

Gync is currently only for Turing, (and Ampere once it releaes) only, not too sure about Freesync support (if the update has even been rolled out)

LG updated the firmware a few weeks ago to fully enable Freesync Premium support on AMD cards. Works flawlessly, even on older Vega generation cards.

Nvidia appear to have locked down Gsync on these to only RTX and 3000 series cards, in a typical money grabbing move (they can get away with anything as Nvidia's mind share is so massive).
 
Got my 48" CX delivered this morning and all setup and wall mounted just above my 34" ultrawide, will mainly be using the CX just PC gaming and also PS5 when released.

Got the best of both worlds now 4K and ultrawide :D

hi would you possibly post a pic of your tv above your monitor as this is what I will probably do when I buy this tv, just wondering how high the tv would look when wall mounted above my 27 inch monitor
 
There is when you consider the input lag on these TV's. ;)

It's around 13ms, which is excellent. If you need faster then you wouldn't even remotely be in the market for this. You'd be looking at some 240hz 1080p options instead, and likely be some sort of pro gamer playing CS:GO 24:7.
 
How are you all managing HDR games with this? When I enable HDR in Windows the desktop gets over blown/bright looking but when I enable in game it seems to settle.

I've got it set to "HDR picture mode: Game"

Should I be tweaking a bit more than this?
 
Ah, so it will look crap on the Desktop but necessary if I want to enable it in game.

Yeah, that's it unfortunately. However, it will work fine for watching HDR Videos/Movies.

I've settled on a standard user mode for all of my inputs, where I've adjusted all of the settings to suit. Still finding that I'm being blown away by the picture when I'm watching or playing games that are years old.

Which HDR picture mode are you using for gaming?

Here you go, it may seem a bit high up but with it tilted forward a little it's perfectly fine and i had no neck pain and i have spent a few hours playing on it.

HDR in Windows is broken you'll have to wait for Microsoft to fix that , it should work fine in games though

hdr on desktop works fine for me.

enabled hdr for games and apps in menu options hdr is detected and works fine

On PC, I'm not using HDR at all. For the games I'm playing at the moment, I'm not fussed.

PS4/Xbox is the same, which is my tweaked Standard settings, where I've set the OLED light to 55 and changed stuff like Dynamic Contrast/Colour to Medium. Haven't seen the need to change the other settings. (Cont - 95, Bright - 50, Sharp - 25, Colour - 60)
